the issue is that the article explains "Set the VLAN ID to 4095. VLAN ID 4095 stands for Trunk mode in ESX 3.x." I dont have vlan 4095 in my switch and my native vlan is another one. If I set the number here to my native vlan it does not work.
Sorry.. I had multiple tabs open and linked the wrong article. Here is the correct article the explains the difference between virtual guest tagging, virtual switch tagging, and external switch tagging. I had linked an article on virtual guest tagging by mistake (in this configuration, each individual guest OS handles VLAN tagging; this is probably not what you want).
In all likelihood, you are going to want virtual switch tagging, as I explained in my earlier post. The article gives a sample configuration for a Cisco switch.
